Mobile SEO

So you have looked at your analytics package and you have seen that your users are viewing your site on mobile devices, but you are not showing up on mobile search engines for your most competitive phrases... What do you do!?  This blog on mobile SEO can help!

I have split the Blog into three main sections:

1) Best practice for Mobile SEO.
2) What to do when you can’t follow best practice.
3) The future of Mobile SEO.

Mobile search engines have different indexing algorithms compared to their desk top equivalent.  These algorithms are getting more and more advanced as mobile and tablet usage increases.

SEO, PPC & Online Marketing - My Recruitment Process

How I Ensure My SEO, PPC and Online Marketing Teams are Staffed Only By The Best.

A great process, but it can feel like another job on a growing list. It is, however, one of the most fundamental and important jobs that a manager can have. 

If you have bad bums in your seats, you will have:

• Poor Quality of Work
• Bad Results
• Unhappy Clients

If you have good bums in your seats, you will achieve:

• Great Quality Work
• Great Work
• Happy Clients
• Greatness!

Martin McAndrew: Is social media dangerous or is it just something that needs to be managed?

I have contact with many professionals from many different professions in my line of work .  I recently spent the day in London with a teacher from a local school who had been nominated for a Times Educational Supplement award for a project we had worked on.

When I first started work on this 2 x BIMA award winning project I was amazed at the quality of modern schooling, It was amazing that girls of 13/14 where volunteering to stay late after school.  They were genuinely interested in project management, SEO, design, development, Ux, essentially they were so open to learning anything that was shared with them.  I was amazed at how relevant the program was at this school.  It honestly made me think in a few years when these girls enter the job market they are going to be so far ahead of where I was at their age.  Essentially if I had kid I would be doing everything I could to get them enrolled in this school and in the form of this particular teacher…  any way I digress.

The point of this blog post is looking at the dangers of social networking.

When Life After Google+ Becomes The Norm

In about six months time, after the buzz of this major shift in social media has died down, we will all find ourselves in the Google+ era.

But what will this strange circular future be like?

Google+ Buisness Profiles are comming

Google+ seems to be the content of every single conversation i am having within my geek web circles.  Genuinely everyone seems very captivated by this new social media platform.  I think a lot of this come down to the very cleaver limited release plan drumming up a real demand for membership.
